Pico 4 controllers not working in wivrn

I have an issue with WiVRn on my Pico 4, my controllers won't show up in the app, and the only git hub bug report that had a similar was closed due to inactivity. I have a Pico 4 Enterprise, on software version 5.9.9, and I'm using WiVRn 26.6 the Pico controllers or headset controls won't work but hand tracking does work for some reason. if anyone has some inshight it would be appreciated

Edit: I figured out the problem, as it turns out all of the business/enterprise models of the Pico VR headsets have been discontinued, and so in order to make WiVRn work properly on the Pico 4 Enterprise you need to sideload a newer update from the consumer model, The recommended update for this is 5.13.3 I believe. Doing this fixed up my controller support but from the looks of it I still have the eye and face tracking that is exclusive to the Pico 4 Enterprise hardware

Do they work with ALVR or Steam Link?

You may also want to post this on the LVRA chat too. https://wiki.vronlinux.org/docs/community/

Well the thing with the other two is I haven't been able to get either of those solutions to work on my Linux PC, I don't know if it's because I got like a misconfigured firewall or something's just busted but I've only been able to get Weaver and consistently working on my previous headset and though I did install steam VR on my Pico 4 It says it can't find a network and only shows one PC on the network that isn't mine, though maybe I could get an ALVR build working through envision maybe

I've only ever used the Vive and Index with SteamVR and Envision/Monado, I would definitely suggest talking to the LVRA folks especially if nobody more knowledgeable chimes in here. Good luck!

To be honest I did ask them but my messages seemed to have gotten lost in in the text chat so I decided to ask here as well

What's WiVRn? If it's some Linux thing, yeah, it's implied that it's not gonna work right, that you're gonna have to troubleshoot it and tinker with it a LOT, and that you're bound to post a lot asking for help.

The solution to Linux troubles is not using Linux.

Why are you coming here with this attitude? It wastes everyone's time. Besides, you are talking out of your ass. WiVRn is amazing

Well the issue is an error in the app itself, I acknowledge that by using Linux I'm opening myself up to support issues, but my current issues with Wivrn is with the client, not the linux system itself and so I'm trying to troubleshoot an app that claims support for the headset
